Mitsubishi Outlander 2016 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Mitsubishi Outlander 2016 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
Should I buy a Nissan X-Trail or a Mitsubishi Outlander?
This issue will always come down to the documented service history that each car comes with. A switched-on previous owner will not only have serviced the vehicle by the book, but will also have kept the relevant receipts as proof of this crucial work being done. We'd always choose the vehicle with a big wad of service receipts over a similar car with no (or less) evidence of scheduled maintenance.
Beyond that, the Nissan clearly has almost 50,000 fewer kilometres on its odometer, so all things being equal it probably nudges ahead at that point. In either case, the CVT transmission fitted to these cars is likely to be the major source of mechanical grief down the track. Both brands' CVT transmissions have been known to give trouble. If that bothers you, then perhaps the one to buy is the Outlander AWD with the turbo-diesel engine option. In that guise, the vehicle has a conventional automatic transmission rather than a CVT.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2016: When will the range be updated?
We couldn't get any definitive info on the release date, and no one was giving away any details of pricing. All we were told is to expect an announcement soon. But with the special deals on the current LS running out on September 30, I would guess the new model is due shortly after that date.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2016: Possible electric issues?
That all sounds like dealer speak for "I haven't got a clue what's wrong." There shouldn't be an undue delay in starting, the engine should crank immediately the key is turned of the starter pressed, and the engine should start within a couple of seconds. If it doesn't there is something wrong. The power steering shouldn't drop out, if it does as you say there is again something wrong. Take it back to your dealer and ask then to investigate the problems and fix them.

SUV under $40k?
The Tucson gets The Tick from me and rates above the X-Trail, but my first choice is the all-new Kia Sportage.
